Celebrating the conclusion of this year's CS342 Building for Digital Health course at Stanford University! Our teams of talented computer science and medical students collaborated with clinical faculty and industry partners to develop six innovative healthcare solutions using the Stanford Spezi open-source ecosystem of modules. Their impressive projects include: - Early prediction systems for neutropenic fever - Novel non-invasive detection methods for cardiovascular disease - Mobile interventions targeting childhood obesity - Addressing feeding challenges in newborns - Continuous, accurate cough measurement tools for chronic respiratory conditions The students overcame significant technical challenges, including developing their own on-device AI models, integrating data from novel Bluetooth devices, and creating intuitive, engaging user interfaces. I'm incredibly proud of their achievements and excited to see these solutions advance to clinical and research implementation. Next week, we're headed to Sweden to collaborate with Torbj?rn Lundh, Peter Kelly, MD and their team to launch a similar program at Chalmers University of Technology, marking the first time our course has been replicated internationally! Follow Stanford Biodesign Digital Health and Stanford Mussallem Center for Biodesign to learn more about these groundbreaking projects! I'd like to extend my sincere congratulations and thanks to my exceptional colleagues on the teaching team Paul Schmiedmayer, Aydin Zahedivash, Nick Riedman, Adrit Rao, Felix M. Schlegel, Meghana Nerurkar, Leon Nissen, our project mentors Henry Wei, Meera Sankar, Janey Pratt, Astrid Androsch, Johannes Jung, Thomas Kaar and our course directors Oliver Aalami and Carlos Guestrin for the incredible opportunity to teach for the fourth consecutive year!

Thrilled to be heading to Sweden ???? later this month to help launch the first international adaptation of our Building for Digital Health course at the Chalmers University of Technology! Delighted that our unique approach to teaching digital health innovation resonates—the course has already reached full capacity. Looking forward to guiding these students in designing real-world digital health solutions and helping them bring their innovations to patients, extending the success we've seen in our flagship course at Stanford over the past five years. Thank you Peter Kelly, MD, Torbj?rn Lundh, Stefan Candefjord, and Oliver Aalami for making this exciting collaboration possible! ??
Every new journey begins with uncertainty. When Torbj?rn Lundh, Stefan Candefjord and I were planning the brand new course on "Implementing Digital Health" (inspired by Stanford University Biodesign Digital Health) I would lie, if I wasn't a little nervous that enough students wouldn't apply on such a short notice. So very happy that we have the reverse challenge: more students have applied for the course, that we will be able to admit! We'll do our best to make this course incredible for the participants. For those student that aren't able to join us this spring, there's a new chance in the fall again. Ping Oliver Aalami, Paul Schmiedmayer, Aydin Zahedivash, Vishnu Ravi, MD.

Proud of our work on BALANCE, a novel mobile health intervention for adolescents with Anorexia Nervosa that provides real-time DBT-based distress tolerance skills to support them during mealtimes. This innovative app was developed by students in our CS342 Building for Digital Health course using our Stanford Spezi framework. The study results are quite encouraging: 100% of participants found the app user-friendly, 88% would recommend it to peers, and 92% reported it helpful during high-stress situations. Congratulations to Drs. James Lock, Nandini Datta, Brittany Matheson, Christina Miranda and the Stanford Eating Disorders Research Program team on this brilliant concept and study! Thanks to my fellow instructors Paul Schmiedmayer, Oliver Aalami, and Ashley Griffin, who helped guide our talented students at the Stanford Mussallem Center for Biodesign through building the app, and Sebastian Ricaldoni who brought it to production readiness! ??
